Tropical Tropical Storm Barry

I think the barely cat 1 hurricane on the ICON is a bit more believable than the NAM.

GFS makes landfall as a 989 mb hurricane in the Lousiana Coast @72 hours.
 
I'm thinking the right call with this would probably be a weak hurricane. It looks like it could get nasty storms wise after landfall even in areas not close to the coast.

Not saying the GFS is right but some said we could not see any rain from this. Nothing has changed at this preliminary stage, it’s too soon to know.
 
GFS and Icon both have a minimal cat 1 hurricane. That seems to be the consensus with the strength at landfall right now. But still have a ways to go to pinpoint where.
 
Not even a tropical depression and people wanna know landfall location and strength. Science isn’t there yet. No consensus or trend to watch atm other than formation.
